Synopsis "Escritos Preulmianos (in Spanish)"

"Méndez Mosquera and Perazzo have selected 18 revealing articles (including a short interview) written by Maldonado before joining the Hochschule für Gestaltung de Ulm in West Germany in 1954 as a professor and vice dean. Maldonado's eurocentric ideas influenced the new generation of Argentine artists, graphic designers, and architects between mid-1940s and mid-1950s. He became a seminal figure in the Argentine avant-garde and an active member of the Buenos Aires 'Concrete' art movement. This collection of his writings clarifies the many directions taken by Argentine art during the immediate postwar period"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
